A reluctant seer, gifted with only a "certain sense," opens his door to a desperate man babbling about a face-a face that haunts him. The trail leads to a deserted chateau; the obsessive work of a vanished artist.
Drawing in a physician and a gallerist, the narrator climbs to the ruin to learn what the chateau holds. A tale of dread, art, and obsession in the Gothic-weird and Lovecraftian tradition: atmospheric, mannered, and quietly unsettling.
